Igbo man get sense die when it comes to financial management.

All hail Emefiele!

This is the best policy ever made by the Central Bank of Nigeria.

Let's endure the suffering associated with this monetary cleansing. Their is light at the end of the tunnel.

Broom and Umbrella have both disappointed Nigerians.
The LABOUR of our heroes past shall not be in vain!

Vote wisely!

What sense has been displayed by emefiele in financial management?

How is this "the best policy ever made by the Central Bank of Nigeria"?

Why should nigerians "endure the suffering associated with this monetary cleansing"? Is there anywhere in the constitution that supports that assertion?

What is monetary cleansing?

The stress of going to CBN at Abuja will make you think twice, or do you to waybill your money to someone in Abuja to exchange it for you.

What if they start asking questions on how you got the money.

Remember police are not actually your friend especially when money is involved

All states in Nigeria has CBN office. All states

Experts have decried the aphazard way the Naira redesign policy has been implemented.

The timing is wrong. Why must it coincide towards the elections? Was the primary purpose to checkmate nigerian politicians, especially some who have a fondness for bullion vans?

If that was partially the reason, it was the wrong move. The sudden announcement of the Naira redesign and swap so the currency collapsing from 650 to 840 overnight before recovering to 740 as of today.

This was mostly due to hoarders of cash at home exchanging it for dollars to avoid losing all their money.

Another is that sufficient awareness was not given. People were still rejecting new notes for a long. Had properly awareness been done, this rush would have been minimized.

Another is the time frame for swapping the notes is simply too short. I am sure best practice should be from 3-6months, and it should happen so seamlessly that no one notices any hiccups.

That hasn't been the case. The last current redesign and swap that was carried out years ago was carried out seamlessly. Nigerians were even excited to receive the redesigned notes.

The withdrawal limit is so that APC vote buyers will not deposit their old notes and withdraw them again.

With this withdrawal limit, even if APC starts withdrawal from now to election day, they will not have enough to buy votes.

We stand with Emefiele 💯%

How does all this justify the suffering nicerians are going thru looking for cash in the midst of fuel scarcity?

How is it Emefieles job to prevent vote buying?

Spoken from an enlightened mind not those who are emotional thinking that it is politicians that will suffer as a result of the policy. I remember when naira notes were changed to polymer. There was absolutely no problem. Very seamless and hassle free

Commercial banks can accept them from citizens but they will only credit accounts and not pay cash. And the banks can redeem them from Central Bank. A very good move from the CBN.

False. You will go to CBN with your old notes yourself to pay into your account or exchange it for new notes.

Re: Old Banknotes Redeemable Only At CBN After Deadline - Emefiele by 12inchess: 6:34pm On Feb 01, 2023
This what you get when you mix politics with institutional govt job. Emefiele is a complete failure. I hope the next president fires him immediately. He has no business running any govt parastatal. Why didn't they do the exchange since a year ago. Well I guess he is following a script. Why give people 3 months to change currency when you can do it within a space of 1 year or even more. He is very incompetent. This is not the first time Nigeria is changing money.

It will be twice stressful to deposit at CBN, when their workers all feel fly, who go accept the deposit? Bank is the easiest place to deposit once the deadline with large number of people having deposited, anyone at CBN na wetin you see take am.

Thank you very much for this. Really appreciated.

If only the redesign and swap could just mimic that one?

Today, i was at the Gtb branch on Oba Akran and there were irate customers barking at the bank workers, holding them accountable for the botched redesign policy. The bankers kept a blank polite face which simply infuriated the customers the more. The customers did not realize that it's down to professional training grin

A lone voice now said rather quietly that its the CBN to blame and not them. They are just scapegoats.

The CBN governor was being very economical with the truth. Rumor had it that Buhari wanted a currency redesign when he assumed office in 2015 but Emefiele was dead against it. He was already incensed at Buhari's interference in bank matters such as fixing the exchange rate which has been the primary reason the economy has been in tatters since 2015

Buhari wanted a redesign naira early on to make worthless the looted cash of politicians stored at home. Buhari redesigned the Naira in circa 1984 for that purpose. I remembered period clearly. The rumor was most likely true

Had Emefiele ever wanted to redesign the currency any time during Buhari's term in office, the president would have definitely given him the goahead.
